It aims to “bring people together in a broad way”. Elisabeth Borne announced, Wednesday August 21 it’s an interview ParisWho is the leader of the Renaissance party? The former Prime Minister, who became deputy for Calvados again in January after his replacement in Matignon by Gabriel Attal, then re-elected after the release, considers it “important” to “maintain the unity of this party” and considers the Renaissance which is not “intended to be a church or a presidential stand”.
While Emmanuel Macron has not chosen a new Prime Minister after the legislative elections of May 30 and July 7, Elisabeth Borne justified the choice of his candidate by the absence of a majority in the lower house. “With this Assembly, no one will implement your plan put my experience in this service, with a spirit of humility and many members of the community,” he explained.
This position can also be coveted by Gabriel Attal, who has already won the team in the Assembly. “Gabriel Attal is the president of our party in the national parliament and he is very important, because we need his strength and his talent, he said that his decision is the party. instead of becoming the general secretary of the party, this that will take him away from the group”, Ms. Borne answered. So the two jobs are incompatible? “Traditionally, it is not customary to be the president of the club at the same time as managing the club,” he stressed. So far, Gabriel Attal has not revealed his plans. But the combination of these two activities, “nothing prevents”, he said recently in private.
For “university way”
The future of Renaissance, the weak link in the government system since 2017, is a strong issue for the Macronist camp, while Emmanuel Macron will not be able to run again in 2027. Will the party play a role, while it is better placed in the elections within the presidential camp, Edouard Philippe, wants to find his own party, Horizons?
Candidate Ms. Borne comes as a group, first called En Marche, then La République en Marche and finally Renaissance, must hold a conference before November 30. This Congress must elect 150 members of the National Committee who will elect the secretary the leader of the group. Formerly occupied by Christophe Castaner and Stanislas Guerini, the position is held from 2022 by Stéphane Séjourné, the current Minister of Foreign Affairs and close to Gabriel Attal.
The Prime Minister, especially popular within the party but whose relations with Emmanuel Macron have been considered controversial since the release, has already accepted the Renaissance party in the Assembly, immediately renaming it “Together for the Republic”.
In her interview, Elisabeth Borne quotes Gérald Darmanin, who she says shares the “same vision” for the “scientific method”. He will make his political comeback on September 15 in Tourcoing. Where, surprisingly, he came last year as Prime Minister to kill the much-buzzed expectations of his Minister of the Interior.
The former president, who was the reformer of the pension reform and the budgets received in 49.3, also seems to be a little distanced from the president after the release, annoyed by the debate that the Assembly blocked, while he struggled to have more than sixty words are accepted without a majority vote.
